Thanks, Kris.  It's a good article, although I had to correct one thing in the comments.  Counting this year's three, thirteen falcons have hatched at the Times Square Building.

I thought that was wrong-I counted this morning and came up with 57 total but it was early...thanks for commenting.

They quoted our Falcon History page, which only counts successful fledges and does not include this year.

As of Dec 31, 2014, there were 53 successful fledges in Rochester, 43 at Kodak and 10 at Times Square.

Well that makes sense then. We don't update that stuff in real time...just not enough hours in the day.

It's written to be a year in review. The real-time news is on the home page -- significant milestones in the middle section and tweets on the right.

The D&C article has been updated. Extremely well done despite the inaccurate falcon count. (For the superstitious, Bronx was number 13 at Times Square.) Nice touch adding the story about the kids in The Bronx.

Yes-I would say that's probably one of the best articles I've seen about the Rochester falcons. Well done Steve Orr!
